Democrats believe we must create jobs, not protect the special interests; build the economy from the middle out, not the top down.

Elect us, hold us accountable, and make a judgment and then go from there. But I do tell you that if the Democrats win, and have substantial majorities, the Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan.

I have deep emotions about the American people. If I were to cry for anything, I would cry for them and the policies that they're about to face.

For three decades, Senator Arlen Specter served the people of Pennsylvania with independence, toughness, determination and an unflinching devotion to the best interests of his constituents and our country. From the committee room to the Senate chamber, Senator Specter offered a voice of reason and passion in every debate - always willing to reach across the aisle and work across party lines to get the job done, regardless of political gamesmanship or gain.

America must be a light to the world, not just a missile.

The Democrats have been there for working people in our country. That's who we are, trickle-down vs. middle-class economics. That's the major difference between the parties.

Republicans always are gearing whatever they do to benefit the high end.
